What did you do to your R18 today?

Coolio. I like the reg as well👍
It looks like you and I got the last R18 number plates from DVLA.
Initially I wanted R18BGR as Bagger, but this was not available, so I settled for R18JUG as plural was not available either. Anyway, I just did a search to see if R18TC or TRCL were available and nope, no more R18 on the DVLA for now.
 
Well I got myself all excited today, I've found a bike exhaust magician within 20 minutes of me and a seperate business that has a great rep that dyno tunes bikes.... they do lots of performance mods as well.... might start with a decat and a tune.
 
It did switch them off initially but I think that was just the ECU resetting. I put them back on via the switch and they have stayed on ever since.
Yeah mine did that too ... but what did change is that when I left them on before shutting down the bike ... and I turned the bike back on, they would turn on ... then fade out and stay out until the motor was running then kick back in ... now they just stay on bright ... i do have a request in with HexCode and they are looking into it.
Also when I don't check the Radio button for 'Auxilliary Lights' In this menu ...

my turn signals will not light up ... very odd ... other than that it works great.

Could it be that you have the intensity set too low? Try raising it to at least 50%

The intensity is set to the default values from HexCode ... and that does not appear to be the problem .. I have changed intensities and it made no difference (or than the brightness) ... but when de-selecting 'Auxiliary Lights (Fog and Cruising lights)' the turn signals will just stay completely off (Cruising function not blinker function that one always works) ... like I said I have an inquiry in with HexCode ... they initially got back to me ... now they are evaluating the 'AutoScan' results .. I figure they will get back to me and let me know if they found something ... this is a new feature and hiccups are (can be) expected ... I am sure the next revision will fix that ... I just would like to know if somebody else has the same issue or if this is isolated to my rig.

Doubled checked mine earlier (the lights not the config), all working as it should. Running lights stay on with ignition power.

Thanks! .. when you happen to have the interface connected ... do have a look please if you have the radio button for the Aux lights checked ...

And if the turn signals (cruising function) turn off when you don't have that checked (disabled) ... if you could ... no rush and no 'must' ... I am just very curios if it has something to do with my bike or if there is a glitch in the coding ;)
